The best way to start is to target companies and decision makers that resemble your best current clients or, if you're just starting, your ideal target customer. Leadsforge lets you quickly identify and locate similar companies and buyers so you can replicate your past wins at scale. Here is why: Going after proven ‘lookalike’ audiences means your outreach is much more likely to resonate, resulting in better reply and conversion rates. Start with Head of Talent, HR leaders, and Talent Acquisition managers at SMBs and mid-market firms, especially in sectors you serve best.

You can find valuable leads by targeting those who follow your competitors’ company pages on LinkedIn. All you need is the LinkedIn page link and main website URL of your competitor, and Leadsforge will handle the rest for you. Share their LinkedIn company page link in Leadsforge and it will find it for you.

Break down your outreach by industry, company size and geographic region. For example: 1) SMBs (50–200 employees) 2) Mid-market firms (201–1,000 employees) 3) Sectors actively hiring (tech, retail, healthcare) 4) Key regions you serve Here is why: Segmenting ensures your message is more relevant to each group, leading to stronger engagement and easier personalization.

Go after verticals where you have a track record or domain expertise. If you’ve placed talent in tech, retail, or healthcare, build campaigns specifically for those. Leadsforge helps you create these vertical-specific lists for targeted campaigns.
